Answer 1

http://www.americanhistorycentral.com/entry.php?rec=460&view=external-links <-- A few paragraphs down it is titled "Abagail Adams" and says, "The Sedition Act allowed those who criticized the policies of John Adams to be tried for sedition and possibly treason. Disturbingly, Abigail approved. Adams's opponents thought that Abigail's partisanship was too overt and her influence on the president too great. Hence their references to "Her Majesty."" Saying this, she basically had rule over her husband very much like a royalty would. c:
